'00 Hornet 250

**hornetakl** · 14th March 2014, 12:28

Here we have my Hornet 250. Been on here before but thought I'd give it another crack after a couple buyers pulled out.

Good little bike, has got me from A to B and sometimes C with no problems for the past year.
Work done recently includes clutch cable, chain & sprockets, steering head bearings replaced and new brake pads.
Has been dropped a couple times by previous owner and myself, but no significant damage.

Will come with an extra front sprocket and clutch cable for the next time it needs it.

"Mods" include;
Yoshimura exhaust
ACP Belly pan
Euro handlebars
New sprockets & RK chain
Mini front indicators
Integrated tail light/indicators

Primarily looking at a swap with cash either way. Offers welcome.

14 year old 2 fiddy.... Totally worth more than a 3 year old hyo!

Personally never ridden a hyo but I've heard bad things about their reliability and you can't really argue Hondas reliability!
I'll post some more pics when I'm home on Sunday.

no. To be honest the horny is a better bike in every direction.
But i doubt youll get what your hoping for off it. Especially since its been binned.

Price is really just an indicator of swap value, give or take.

what ya gonna get next?

They're upside down euro bars. I tried to do the same kind of thing with renthals but managed to destroy them in the process. Will be going back to renthals or woodcraft clip ons if I dont manage a sale.

Clip ons dont work with the Hornet tank. Im running Thar Bars. Work well.
